Utah Juvenile Crimes Lawyer
Kids make mistakes. It's a simple fact of life and part of growing up. Understanding this can be difficult for parents, especially when the mistake is a big one. Getting arrested can have a great impact on the child and his family. Things such as being removed from the home, being sent to a juvenile detention facility and how the arrest will affect the kids' future are all questions that need to be addressed. The juvenile crimes attorney at the Salt Lake City Law Offices of H. Delbert Welker will answer these questions.
Protecting your interests
First and foremost, we make it clear to our underage clients and their families that it is the child who is our client, not the parents. It is our job to protect the interests of our client. We want to make sure their rights our protected and that they do not have their future ruined as a result of their arrest. We want to help them with the things that are important to them. We want to get them home, back to hanging out with their friends, and in school.
At the same time, we do understand the importance of keeping the parents very involved in the process. After all it is their child, and they have every right to be concerned with what is going to happen. We work with the child and parents to make sure a satisfactory ending is reached for everyone.
We are there for you
Our juvenile criminal attorney will demystify the complicated legal process for the juvenile and their families. Judges in juvenile court do not often want to create problems by locking a minor up, they want to resolve them. We are very closely involved throughout the entire process with the family and the child. We try and figure out what the problem is and provide solutions to correct it. Our office deals with the judge directly by getting them the information they need to determine the outcome. Having an attorney to act as an intermediary, someone who understands the law and the juvenile system can make a difference in the way the kid is treated by the courts.
